Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very good. Presumed First Edition. xii, [2], 341, [5] pages. Stamp of The American Academy of Diplomacy on the front free endpaper. Forward by HRH Prince El Hassan bin Talal of Jordan. Preface by David L. Boren, President of the University of Oklahoma. Topics covered include Introduction: Traditional Positions and New Solutions; Part 1: The Historical Background and the "Right of Return; Comprehensive Solutions; Regional Context Perspectives; Policy Positions and Solutions; Public-Opinion Polling--How the Palestinian and Israeli-Jewish Publics Perceive the Issues. Also contains information about the contributors, Acknowledgments, Concluding Remarks, and an Index. Joseph Ginat (March 6, 1936 - 2009) was an Israeli anthropologist, author, political advisor, and soldier. Edward Joseph Perkins (born June 8, 1928) is a former American diplomat who served as U.S. Ambassador to Liberia, South Africa, and the United Nations. There has been little progress on the refugee problem because of official Palestinian public positions, other Arab countries' approach to the 'right of return' of all Palestinian refugees, and the contrasting Israeli public policy of not allowing any refugees to return to Israel. Such polar-opposite approaches can never resolve this difficult and longstanding humanitarian problem. By working collectively, the world's leading experts from Arab countries, the Palestinian Authority, Israel, Europe and the United States have developed a chessboard of proposed solutions. The volume in part reflects the polarization that exists on the issue, and in part moves away from the political slogans of both sides, toward concrete proposals for negotiating a comprehensive agreement. By bringing together the history and the creative thinking of the world's foremost scholars on what has been one of the two most intractable issues in Middle East peace negotiations--the return of Palestinian refugees,and the status of Jerusalem--this book provides information that would be useful both in reaching a solution on refugees, and in the implementation of any settlement on which there is agreement.…

Cloth. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Type: Book "Water in the Middle East" presents historical and cross-cultural perspectives on water and conflict, prospects for future cooperation in the water arena among Middle Eastern countries, the political economy of water and technical solutions to water shortages in the Jordan Valley, and the relationships among water, agriculture, and environmental sustainability. Through case studies and essays, natural and social scientific water experts from Israel, Palestine, Jordan, and the United States examine: The role of water in Middle East conflicts and the possibility of regional solutions to water scarcity requiring cooperation among states; Long-term prospects of various aquifers and other fresh-water sources, including desalination; current and future environmental deterioration of water resources; Breakthroughs and developments increasing regional agricultural productivity, depending less on high-quality waters while turning to lower quality resources, such as recycled and brackish waters; alternatives to current water-usage patterns, particularly with regard to agriculture and the possibility of redirecting water to tourism and other economic sectors. While this book highlights the complexities pertaining to regional water scarcity and inequitable distribution, the contributors offer no definitive conclusions or facile solutions; yet there is a broad consensus that regional solutions to maximize water resources must be pursued even as desalination becomes more viable both from technical/economic standpoints. The continuing deterioration of existing water supplies in terms of quantity and quality mandate that any solution must be achieved within a political/social framework of peace, enlightened economic policies, and the application of technical solutions that take due account of environmental concerns.249pp.…
